This Lady is Crazy! And I Love Her!

The Bloggess
While I was perusing the list of the "Top 25 Blogs," I came across one that captured my attention solely because of the name, "The Bloggess."  I believe the title captured my attention so abruptly because it called out to my inner diva, something that all women have, but may not easily admit.  As I clicked link after link on her page trying to determine the purpose of her blog, I found it, sitting right there looking at me.  "I wrote for the Houston Chronicle, but I needed an uncensored space to say the F-word and talk about ninjas."  This lady is crazy, and I love her!  But why?  What makes her blog so successful?  She has widgets to Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest.  This helps her readers share the content that they love with others, which brings in   more followers (Guest Author, n.d.).  Her content is also full of unscripted wit.   And who doesn't love a natural comedian? The Bloggess' page also has links to other sites that contain information she thinks her reader may find interesting and helpful.  Or, at the very least, funny!

THE BLOGGESS' BEST PRACTICES!
1.  She decided what she was going to blog about, Life!
2.  The name of her blog is synonymous with diva, and anyone of the female persuasion loves that, and men just want to see what women are talking about....#nosy!
3.  Her theme and logo, well it's obvious no expense was spared here.
4.  Widgets and buttons, she's definitely not afraid of social media! (Guest Author, n.d.).

There's really no need for me to continue with my count of  The 12 Steps to having a Successful blog.  The Bloggess has covered all of them.  Her page is a sarcastic, insightful, foul mouthed trip into the life of being female.  Any one who knows a female, is a female, once was a female, thinking about becoming a female, or likes or dislikes a female should check this blog out!

  1. Laura, your post was funny as well! I'm not very social media savvy but this woman definitely appears to be someone I should check out and read a few of her blogs. I'm glad that she found an outlet where she could swear and talk about ninjas.. That's always important. I would assume that she also enjoys not having to write about anything other than what she wants to write about. That was probably a big motivation for her to quit!

  2. Victoria,
    If I could get paid for writing like that, I would quit too!
